In everything be thankful! Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 KJV

Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thess. 5:16-18
O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.1 Chron. 16:34
But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord. Jonah 2:9
And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Luke 22:19
For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. Romans 11:36
What is Sharing: Have a portion of (something) with another or others or use, occupy, or enjoy (something) jointly with another or others. (via google definitions)
To sum up sharing in my personal view, is to give and take as needed and to do it selflessly. If we take unnecessarily or give unwillingly then we have missed the mark and it won’t be counted towards us as good deeds. Being forced to do well or taking anything without a cause demonstrates to others that we have no morals or values. We are supposed to teach and treat others how we want to be taught and treated. In my opinion it doesn’t make sense to take thing we don’t need or to give to someone what you still want for yourself. There are many Biblical stories (example: the married couple Ananias and Sapphira) that prove not so good outcomes when our hearts are not in the right place. Frankly we don’t even need religion or other motivations in order to feel good or make others happy because it will just feel like the correct things to do.
Although some of these are taught at very young ages, not everyone has adapted and this will be visible through greed and selfishness which are some narcissistic qualities. For more Biblical examples please read my book “Narcissists in the Bible” on Amazon Kindle. This particular post was motivated by me watching a YouTube video and also witnessing countless actions/activities between my 9 year old and my 5 year old second cousin. I call it the “me, me, me/I, I, I syndrome” it’s very entertaining to say the least. In conclusion, when you give and take please allow your heart to lead because what gave won’t give you pleasure and what you took won’t benefit you. Remember you’re being watched…literally!
Many us as the hearers and doers of God are used to Him speaking to our spirits or minds/hearts but there are many of the LORD’s children who believe that His voice will be audible. Instead of listening to that small still voice (better known as discernment of the Holy Spirit) it’s ignored because we are looking for something more. Hearing the voice of Yah is simple and peaceful, yet if we lean to our own understanding and do not allow Him to order our steps it will lead to confusion and chaos. Not taking heed to the Holy Spirit will give the enemy power that is dangerous to our very life/soul.
I have been able to give spiritual advice concerning this subject to many of the saints by suggesting to just be still. When we don’t know what to do it is better to do nothing and wait which can save us a lot of heartache and headaches. Although I can give this advice now, there was once a time when I was not as sensitive in my spirit enough to hear from our Father just as many of our brothers and sisters suffer with today. Meditating on the word of Yah, praising, praying and even fasting can help us “hear” from God. Going to church and congregating just isn’t enough in these last days, we simply need MORE!
John 16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.
Take time for yourself, read the word for yourself, ask/believe/receive and hear what the Most High is saying in this time of separation and preparation of His beloved children Israel. He is speaking to your heart today but it is up to you to stop, repent and listen to what His set-apart Spirit is saying because it may save you from being drowned with the cares of this world and set you free for the world/age to come. Until the next blog entry…be increased and consider where you are and where you are going.

When we understand the true definition of what a narcissist is then we began to understand that these individual possess a demonic spirit. The enemy himself is a murderer, thief/liar and a destroyer (a very self-righteous and egotistical spirit). Because the enemy mirrors the Most High and has a remnant of children also, these people are set before us to suck the very virtue and innocence out of the saints. Believers should be very aware of what these people are capable of to stay safe in flesh and in spirit. We can see narcissism in the Bible through the personalities of King Saul, Judas and of course Jezebel. This sociopath’s mental illness/disorder has been known to cost people their very lives, so stay vigilant family and be aware of who you are connected too. Be blessed, strong and encouraged in the Master.
THE CREATOR OF ALL THINGS MADE A PROMISE TO ABRAHAM TO BLESS HIS SEED ABOVE ALL MEN. YHWH’S SET APART CHILDREN WHICH ARE SCATTERED ACROSS THE FOUR CORNERS OF THE WORLD ARE AWAKENING AND SEEKING HIS FACE. HE HAS MADE IT KNOWN THAT IF WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS AND BELIEVE IN OUR MASTER AND DELIVERER YAHUSHA THE MESSIAH, YHWH OUR FATHER WILL HEAR US FROM HEAVEN… ALL PRAISES AND HONOR TO THE MOST HIGH POWER! THE END OF THIS WORLD IS FASTLY APPROACHING AND IT IS VERY NECESSARY FOR ALL PEOPLE TO PRAY, REPENT WATCH AND SPREAD THE “GOOD NEWS”.
IT IS MY DUTY AS A BELIEVER IN THE FATHER, SON AND HOLY BREATH; TO LET EVERYONE THAT ALSO BELIEVES AND THOSE THAT WANT TO BELIEVE BUT FIND IT HARD TO LET GO OF THEIR IDOLS, KNOW TO TAKE HEED TO THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES! I AM PLEADING WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND ALL THOSE ADOPTED THEREIN TO COME OUT OF THE BABYLON OF YOUR MIND AND BE SET APART FOR YOUR ETERNAL LIFE IS AT HAND. BE PROSPEROUS AND I AM PRAYING FOR YOU!
1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God
blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2 And he said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose
up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten
thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand:
and they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words.
4 Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the
congregation of Jacob.
5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people
and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.
6 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few.
7 And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said,
Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his
hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from his enemies.
8 And of Levi he said, Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy
holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou didst strive at
the waters of Meribah;
9 Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen
him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for
they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.
10 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
11 Bless, Lord, his substance, and accept the work of
his hands; smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them
that hate him, that they rise not again.
12 And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of
the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him
all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.
13 And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be
his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that
coucheth beneath,
14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and
for the precious things put forth by the moon,
15 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for
the precious things of the lasting hills,
16 And for the precious things of the earth and fulness
thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing
come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was
separated from his brethren.
17 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his
horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people
together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim,
and they are the thousands of Manasseh.
18 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going
out; and, Issachar, in thy tents.
19 They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they
shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance
of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.
20 And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: he
dwelleth as a lion, and teareth the arm with the crown of the head.
21 And he provided the first part for himself, because there,
in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the
people, he executed the justice of the Lord, and his judgments with
Israel.
22 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion’s whelp: he shall leap
from Bashan.
23 And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with
favour, and full with the blessing of the Lord: possess thou the west and
the south.
24 And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children;
let him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in oil.
25 Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so
shall thy strength be.
26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth
upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.
27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the
everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall
say, Destroy them.
28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of
Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down
dew.
29 Happy art thou, O Israel: who
is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help, and
who is the sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto
thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
Obeying the word of the Most High Power (God) and His Son the Messiah (Jesus) is a necessity for believers of the entire Bible. Life can be as simple as we make it because if we keep the commandments as our Creator has said through His Prophets, He will turn our captivity. Instead of being cursed, we will be blessed in all the works of our hands if we (Israel) will love righteousness and live the way that God has commanded. It is wise to choose life over death and good over evil! The Creator considers disobedience unlawful and evil, by obeying our Father in keeping laws, statutes and commandments we can bring blessing over the lives of ourselves and our children. Many of us are attached to the land of our captivity, our oppressors and their idols. We are told in the Bible not to be of the world but to just be in it….there is a difference, we have gotten attached and have adapted to the evils of this world. Mentally removing ourselves from “Babylon” and it’s “Daughter” can save our souls. Being separate/set apart (Holy) is what we were told and taught to achieve in order to represent our Power. In accomplishing being set apart is how we will be delivered and live “forever” in Heaven, which will be on earth (as it is in Heaven). God and His Son is perfect and we are supposed to run this race seeking to be perfect also. There is nothing you do that is not known and there is nothing you can do for Him to not love you! The Father will eventually destroy Babylon (the new Egypt) and if you are attached to it you will be destroyed also. Your sins can be pardoned and you can be delivered if you receive the truth, repent and separate from iniquity and idols. Renew your mind, be sober, have faith, hate evil, love your Brothers, do good, believe, have hope and patience. Create and maintain a relationship with your Father through prayer and fasting, knowing in your heart that Christ is interceding on your behalf so that you can live your best life in peace. Outsmart your enemies by turning them over to the Most High and remember that every member of the body is important, we’re too close to the end…seek God and live.

Now that we have a few definitions out of the way to be politically correct, we can discuss in a Biblical sense what necromancing is. I recently had disturbedfeelings about a situation dealing with members of my family wanting the company of my Mother’s ashes for Mother’s Day. I am not asking the audience if I was right or wrong in these feelings that I had but I do want to bring some light on what The Most High has made clear to us in His word. This particular blog entry isn’t written to hurt anyone but the nudging of my spirit lets me know that I must inform the masses of the truth.
We all know that hasatan is a creative but shady demonic entity that rules this world for a season but just how crafty is he to use the people we once loved to make us sin against our Father’s will? Dreams and visions can bring about truth in our lives mostly for the future, however dreaming about the past or deceased people can be dangerous territory for us as believers. We can not be ignorant of the enemy’s devices! Loosing a loved one hurts but we also know that The Creator of all things (God) makes no mistakes, especially concerning life and death regardless of how we might feel about it. Depending on advice, direction or opened doors and opportunities from the dead is indeed necromancing, sorcery, conjuring, witchcraft, summoning, transferring spirits convoking, incantation, majic, evoking, etc. IT IS WRONG! Our Power is a jealous Power and leaning on anyone or anything other than Him will cause destruction. The Biblical story of King Saul consulting the witch of Endor in 1 Samuel 28th chapter proves this and him trusting in the dead more than God was the root cause of his sin and death.
WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS!!! Many have come in the name of The Most High God but are false prophets and hypocrites. Not only that but when your Pastor tells you that you don’t have to keep the law/commandments when God says to keep them forever is a lie. When a “prophet” tells you you’re going to be “blessed” even though you know you’ve been sinning and the Father isn’t giving you anything anytime soon (except grace to keep you alive) is considered to be a FALSE PROPHET! Here are some other examples of true and false prophets/teachers…

2 Corinthians 11:13-15 KJV
13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers,
transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an
angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be
transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to
their works.
Jeremiah 23:14-32 KJV
14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible
thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands
of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness; they are all of them
unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
15 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts
concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them
drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone
forth into all the land.
16 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Hearken not unto
the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they
speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord.
17 They say still unto them that despise me,
The Lord hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one
that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon
you.
18 For who hath stood in the counsel of the Lord, and
hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?
19 Behold, a whirlwind of the Lord is gone forth in
fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the
wicked.
20 The anger of the Lord shall not return, until he
have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the
latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.
21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not
spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my
people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way,
and from the evil of their doings.
23 Am I a God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God
afar off?
24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see
him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord.
25 I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in
my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that
prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their
dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have
forgotten my name for Baal.
28 The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and
he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to
the wheat? saith the Lord.
29 Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and
like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith
the Lord, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord,
that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
32 Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams,
saith the Lord, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their
lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them:
therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the Lord.
Ezekiel 22:30 KJV
30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the
hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy
it: but I found none.
Matthew 23:29 KJV
23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters
of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to
leave the other undone.
24 Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a
camel.
25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full
of extortion and excess.
26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within
the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are
within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but
within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because
ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the
righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we
would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the
children of them which killed the prophets.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape
the damnation of hell?
34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men,
and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall
ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon
the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of
Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon
this generation.
Many of us believe that grace over-rules law but that is an incorrect belief system which is usually taught in Christianity. Although Paul made the statement about being under grace (Romans 6:15), please understand that he was assuming that the law was already being kept/followed! No law = No grace and it’s that simple…The Most High is not the Author of confusion and His burden is light. We are to keep His commandments and in doing so, grace and mercy will be given to you. At the end of the day let us all humble ourselves to remember that man does not override our Father in Heaven regardless of their status (God gives and He takes away). Pay attention to who is teaching you because lawless people are dangerous people.

Psalm 23 (KJV)
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me
beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort
me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine
enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

unto him.

Psalm 51 (KJV)
1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness:
according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from
my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever
before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil
in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear
when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother
conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the
hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I
shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou
hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine
iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right
spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy
spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me
with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall
be converted unto thee.
14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my
salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth
thy praise.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it:
thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a
contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the
walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of
righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they
offer bullocks upon thine altar.
